Anxiety disorder: Your heart is fine. Your chest is not. This is a classic case of not managing your stress well. You are not breathing well and your chest muscles are fatigued, tight, exhausted and trying to tell you to deal with your stress better. Any good family doctor can help you with this. You do not need any more heart tests!

Chest pains: Sounds like it is not cardiac with 2 normal ekgs. May be more a muskuloskeletal issue. Keep up with dr. To get diagnosis and eventual tx.

Costochrondritis: With two ekg's normal, doubt cardiac disease, since pain is triggered by movement, you have inflammation of the cartilage in your chest.
